Brad, some would say that the executive branch 
has already helped itself to more than enough 
power -- both before and after Watergate.

And I agree that when we loose the dogs of war,
we do so with complete committment and adequate
resources -- and popular consensus.

Peace is in part not starting something you are 
not prepared to finish.
